The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) has been providing relief and development services in Sudan since 2014. Using a protection of human rights framework, DRC has mainly focused on refugees who are displaced by conflict and natural disaster. DRC-s programs include Protection, Food security & Livelihoods, Shelter/NFI.

Due to war, displacement, unemployment, poverty, demographic transformations and instability of the economy in Sudan, the informal sector has become the haven for the majority of people compelling them to venture into it. Women and youth confront tremendous difficulties in urban areas. Moreover, economic pressures and the high cost of living are increasingly driving more women & youth into the informal labor market, in order to support their families. The majority of people in this sector live in a grinding cycle of poverty on the peripheries and across Khartoum state.

Female workers in particular; face abusive and exploitative situations while working in the informal sector including incidents of on-the-spot raids and confiscation of equipment, hefty fees, excessively long work hours without rest days, intimidation as well as physical & psychological abuses. Women workers are also subject to harassment, including sexual violence. Many women in the informal labor market remain vulnerable to abuses of power, negative social perceptions, discrimination, harassment and other forms of gender-based abuse.

Business management skills that matches demand and recognition of women-s & youth-s work in the context of livelihoods betterment and women empowerment needs to be at the forefront of efforts to alleviate poverty. Empowering women & youth with business management skills that are in demand is critical.

DRC helps rebuild livelihoods through a variety of means, including business and entrepreneurship training, small business grants, life-skills training, literacy and numeracy training, vocational training, micro-credit loans, savings groups, and group enterprise development. All of our initiatives are developed with a strong focus on resilience and sustainability.

This business management curriculum and training is one of the planned activities of the “Responding to conflict induced emergencies, protecting human rights, promoting sustainable livelihoods and fostering social cohesion for displacement affected communities in Sudan project” which is targeting women & youth entrepreneurs whom are struggling to sustain their main sources of income. The entrepreneurs shall receive business management trainings with special focus on financial literacy, business planning, marketing, branding as well as the establishment of cooperatives. The trainings target small scale entrepreneurs- dependent on casual and/or semi-skilled labor to support their businesses, flexibility in the marketplace and increase their resilience. In accordance to the above context, the project has planned to select and hire a competent and experienced business management and training consultancy firm to undertake the assignment as per this term of reference.
